Queen Marie's Palace (Queen Victoria's grand daughter) and the botanical gardens (2nd largest in Europe)are only 20 minutes walk away from the house. The Queen had such a love for this romantic and beautiful place that her heart now lies in the palace.
The palace also boasts a huge collection of historical artifacts. There is also wine tasting within the gardens.
